5 nights with breakfast at Grand Hotel da Vinci including 2 Green fees per person (Adriatic Golf Club Cervia and Rimini Verucchio Golf Club)

Say the word “Romagna” and the first thing that comes to mind is the Riviera with its kilometric beaches, delicious piadina sandwiches, and the natives’ ability to satisfy the needs of the thousands of international tourists that each year choose it for their holidays. For this reason, the region could not be without a top level golf course. Therefore, in 1984, at the request of the Cervia Municipality and thanks to the initiative of many local tourism entrepreneurs, the Adriatic Golf Club came into being and which, to its initial 18 holes, added another course of 9 holes in 2004. The course lies on 100 hectares of completely level land in a pristine natural environment 500 meters from the sea: the first 9 holes (Red route) are nestled in a lush pinewood between Cervia and Milano Marittima, the second 9 (Blue route) feature fairways that are more open and above all are furrowed by significant American-style water hazards: the most recent, the Yellow route, has the feel of Scottish links. Only trees, countryside and the fragrance of the sea: there are no constructions to disturb the golfer’s line of vision during matches; the modern clubhouse with its red-tile roof fits well into the landscape: a drink perhaps at sunset is highly recommended on the terrace facing the playing routes and the large lake that makes the final holes of the Yellow and Blue routes more difficult. Technical Details Course: 3 x 9 holes, 6272 meters. Rosso- Blue, Par 72, 6037 m / Giallo – Rosso Par 71, 6044 m Architect: Marco Croze Topography: flat, undulating fairways, thick roughs. Distinctive features: very enjoyable game, between Scottish Links and American Parkland. Pro’s Comments Three 9-hole routes that you should not overlook; you will be hitting shots in the woods where extreme precision is necessary (7th and 8th holes on the red route), you will be playing holes where strength is a good resource to have (11th and 16th on the blue route) and you’ll be hitting in the wind on the yellow route where the sea breeze is often in command: seeing is believing.
